Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
100 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Boy, was I wrong--this game was amazing for its time, and it holds up (story-wise; the graphics and point-and-click mechanics have aged, of course) as long as you have the patience for it today.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's not great, the story is okay, the acting is pretty sad, and the graphics are 640x480 awesoeness.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The backgrounds — from shadowed hallways to the magician’s hidden chambers — remain visually striking, and the soundtrack, filled with haunting chants and whispered motifs, elevates the tension significantly.
